I can get you some guesses.

I guess he could not completely shake off the psycho-probe. Might also have something to do with him having been through a partially different Unity. Hmm, maybe we should try to compare pre-unity and post-unity Magnus to see if there's any indication of this.
what does he mean when he says hes been healing slower?
Maybe he's getting old, or maybe it has something to do with his reality being gradually replaced with a new one.

Issue 10, pages 7 and 8.

What Magnusr said :thumb:

Gil's memories were scrambled for the rest of Magnus and Rai thanks to psycho probing. You also have to remember that if his memory's fuzzy and he later went through a similar conflict in the Lost land that was shorter, he may have mistaken that for the original Unity.

I don't know if that's were they were going but it looks like Geoff may have been recruiting heroes to deal with the aftermath of Unity in the visuals of Rai 0 (before the dialog about Master Darque was added after Shooter left). Shooter said dinosaurs AND technology were supposed to come back from Unity (it was a way of bringing fantastic things back to the "real" world). We saw precious little of the technology so I'm wondering if maybe that was supposed to lead the 99 event and perhaps a similar conflict to Unity (perhaps a return to the Lost Land?). Just a theory.

- originally future Gilad wrote it off because of the psycho-probing, but the answer was answered (though not verbally) when 1990's Gilad gets cut by the tree branch when they fall and future Gilad gets a new scar. The reason he doesn't remember is the basis of Unity. Time is not absolute, except in land of the lost. (Lost Land? I can't remember what they called it) All events occuring in Unity are occuring in real time, while everything outside of unity was all happening at once. Pierce explained it by using a hurricane, all time is a hurrican and the Lost Land is in the eye.

I think that he means that his age and time has caught up to him...literally that he has been healing slower in his older age, could this mean Gilad is not as immortal as he thought...probably.

don't know, but I would assume not long after unity in Harbinger, because I was re-reading Unity 1 last night and as Solar was returning everyone to their times, she was trying to tell Pete, Pete was still freaking out about "Where's the baby"? and blink, they were gone.

thanks for any answers :thumb:[/quote]
